Judd Apatow produced and wrote Freaks and Geeks, which should have lasted forever and instead got canceled after one season. But he also wrote and directed some hugely successful movies, including The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up, produced movies like Bridesmaids, and is currently an executive producer of Girls. So, he knows a thing or two about life and stuff.

When I saw the light-picture-before-the-article-is-posted-thingy I GOT SO EXCITED BECAUSE IT WAS JUDD APATOW. He’s made/helped create so many hilarious movies (and my favorite show of all time, Freaks and Geeks).

All of our other advice posts are written by us, the writers and editors of this site. I am a fan of all the people who have done Grown Person videos for us, and I think it’s fun and funny to get advice from them because I love their work.

I’m 20 years old and some of the things he says in this video; I’ve obviously already gone through.
Other things… no, but since he’s right on the stuff I have gone through (about 50%), it’s safe to say I am bookmarking this video for future reference when I am discouraged about life. I’m really surprised by the content of this video; I only know of his work but I had no idea who he was or that he’d have such ‘true’ answers.

Yoo-hoo! August’s theme is GIVE AND TAKE, and we’d like to take into consideration whatever submissions you have to give about that! (Even/especially if they’re as cheesy as we just were.) Send pitches to submission@rookiemag.com. ✴
